''A Prisoner in Turkey'' is a non-fiction book written by John Still and originally published in 1920. The book is a personal account of Still’s experiences as a prisoner of war during World War I in Turkey. Still was a British officer who was captured by the Ottoman Empire and spent three years in various prison camps throughout Turkey. In the book, Still describes the harsh conditions of the prison camps, including the lack of food and medical care, as well as the cruelty of his captors. He also provides insight into the cultural and political climate of Turkey during the war, including the rise of nationalism and the tensions between different ethnic and religious groups. ''A Prisoner in Turkey'' is a vivid and detailed account of a little-known aspect of World War I, providing readers with a unique perspective on the conflict and its impact on individuals caught in the midst of it. The book is a testament to the resilience and courage of those who endured the hardships of war and captivity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
